[Typo3] Minute Website

[Joseph Mesterhazy]

OK, but this confuses me a bit more then. The templavoila extension is 
labeled "alpha". So if I use that extension in 3.7.0, and build a site 
with it, will there be a lot of changes when 3.8.0 comes out? Is this a 
safe approach? I guess I was assuming templavoila would be stable in 
3.8, but if the the extension repository version of templavoila is the 
same as the one in 3.8, and its alpha, then maybe I am mistaken.

I guess the tag 'alpha' is what gives me the most pause in regards to 
trying it out.
